have a proper answer in the summer hopefully. Not sure, depends how Taylor comes back. He won't accept being third choice IMO. I was assuming all these links with big money signings like Vertonghen were if Coloccini was off. We need a good young player to push Williamson down the pecking order. True that, may well be the reason we are now linked instead with his team mate Alderweireld more recently. That said of course, while I have my suspicions it could be a bit of a nightmare how Pardew might handle 3 top class centre backs, it's what we need if we were to step up and consistently challenge the top 6/7 rather that settle as a top 10 club next year.

There seems to be no obvious divide of younger fans and older ones on this board. As one of the apparently older supporters I find it pretty startling that you have so little tolerance of a manager that has yet to see one full season with us and yet has brought in and got the players you hold in such high regard to that 6th position you feel 'youngsters' are getting so blinded by (a position a full ten places higher than the seasonal average for the club in my time). Forgive me for only having time to pick up on one of your paragraphs if that is 'doing a Ronaldo', I gave my general thoughts on the previous page to your post.

I don't hate him as much as I hate his bull s*** and his football. I called him first and I'll be proved right. This isn't me trying to be some kind of sage shamen or something and I wont be happy when I'm proved right but f*** me its staring everyone in the face but our position seems to be blinding many. No side or manager will ever be successful playing the way we do and top players will never shine with such tactics. Pardew from day one has not changed the way we play and its actually getting progressively worse despite our players getting better. Christ, straight out of the NE5 playbook. For me, Pardew seems extraordinarily passionate about the game and his players (check out his post match on nufc.cock for starters). He prepares and gets the players fighting for the cause (Keegan said at the weekend that he gets the best out of players, but that's maybe a little to much to stomach for some at the moment) who while potentially are as an exciting a bunch as we have had for a long time, are not the world beaters we maybe like to portray at times. I also think he has a style of football that is different to the one we have relied on maybe too much this season. Maybe not quite the tippy tappy some crave, but a kind the players seem to be on board with, and it was something Collocini highlighted in his 'why I signed a new contract' interview. I've certainly heard enough from him picking out and praising the kind of teams and players that play good football to still believe that. Now, fair enough, there has been some turgid stuff since Christmas, struggling to get even the basics right, never mind to allow us a platform for the likes of HBA to shine, but injury and individual players loss of form has a part to play in this too, and I appreciate it when Pardew holds his hands up occasionally and admits that he (not the players) should have done better. As it stands, Pardew seems a pretty great fit for the club at the moment, and I'm still excited more than wary to see where he might take us in the future. I had a feeling we may fall away at the back end of this season so maybe that cushioned my expectations a little, who knows, but a change in manager is way down on my to-do list for the club.

Not as much as he rated Jeffers. And I'm sorry, it's nonsense to say that we only got Ba as he was free (or 2m fees etc). The club/Pardew knew his qualities enough to take a (still fairly expensive) risk on him, one which has so far paid off.

Damn, they got him. /I was reffering to Mr Brains liver and onion meatballs M'lud!

Ironically, doing what I was told and clicking the link in first email, I won't get an apology as by doing so removed me from the original mail list.

Got it, and while checking the link URL out, clicked it. Sent me to an unsubscribe page, which apparently unsubscribed me from something, refreshing confirmed I was unsubscribed. Fuck knows what, I'm probably now on every penis enlargement list known to man. Either that or it actually was nufc.co.uk playing around with a new newsletter system in their usual cack handed manner. The link takes you to http://communicatoremail.com/, no idea whether that is genuinely part of http://www.communicatorcorp.com/ or not. Either way, do not bother clicking.

mick lowes of radio newcastle is currently on his knees outside dereks office begging him to make this official policy, so he can respect him. Probably true that. Was absolutely fuming when I heard the fat twunt effectively telling them to get on with it, live on national radio.

If we end up in Europe at the end of the season, he'll bloody deserve one mind. /fully expect us to start tumbling back down the table at any moment.

Wasn't there some lad in here who worked at the offices opposite? Fancy getting a few fuck off projectors and plastering the whole stadium with 'St James' Park's? Go on, go on, go on, go on. Do it.

Bringing in all these jet washers is costing the club money and the longer it goes on, the less chance we have of buying players and winning the league.

Indeed. They make the unwelcoming bare 'arena' walls come alive in a delightfully subtle manner. Tacky, cnuts.

Countless. Aye, right.

Not that Nile would do anything similar, not 2 days ago, no sir.

Some people did underestimate the players coming in. Some people are possibly overestimating how good our players actually are after a very good start to the season.

Apparently depends on whether God has a soft spot for Wolves. I'd be amazed if he/she/it did like.

Thought this would be about him throwing his hat in for the Wolves/England job, or is he just going to remain an Soccer Circus/ESPN pundit from now on?
